Description
Here’s a Victor that features two of the most popular dance bands of the 1930s. Born in Pennsylvania, Ted Weems (1901-1963) gave Perry Como his start and also had a huge hit when his 1930s’ hit “Heartaches” was revived in 1947. British both Ray Noble (1903-1978) was the most popular English bandleader on this side of the pond in the 1930s with numerous hits on Victor. Weems recorded “Pan Handle Pete,” with a vocal by Parker Gibbs and chorus, on December 13, 1932. Noble recorded the swinging “Rock Your Cares Away,” with a vocal Al Bowlly, on October 11, 1932.

NOTE: I grade records by a rating system that has been standard in the industry for decades. Still, it can be a subjective undertaking. I am more likely to grade by how the record reproduces aurally (I use a 78 Shure cartridge with a 1950s Voice of Music turntable that has been fit into a 1946 Magnavox Belvedere radio-phonograph) than by how it looks visually. Sometimes a record that appears substantially worn plays very well and sometimes the opposite is true.
